Il Poggiale Chianti Classico Riserva
Made from 90% Sangioveto, 5% Canaiolo and 5% Ciliegiolo grown in the Il Poggiale vineyard, located 1,148-1,300 feet above sea level and harvested at extremely low yields (less than 2 tons per acre). After a maceration period of 16-23 days, the wine is transferred to barriques and aged for one to two years prior to bottling.
Tasting Notes
This Riserva is deep ruby red in color and displays richness backed by solid tannin. Full-bodied with plenty of spice, this wine has aging potential.
Food Pairing
An austere wine that goes well with rich fare such as ossobuco, beef stew, casseroles, roast beef, and filet mignon.
